Totally stunned by this news. I knew Martin well after we met doing Hibs TV commentaries some years ago. A really nice guy, Hibs daft and very loyal as a friend.

Never knew him but Martin's voice used to make me think I was at Easter Road
Middle of the night in Sydney watching Hibs TV and hearing the commentary from a true Hibs fan.
Thanks for everything.

RIP Martin. Hope we lift this cup for you!

Tragic, I've lived near both Elgin and Aberdeen in the last few years and work most weekends so rely on Martin, Cliff, Kevin or Boozy's commentaries - the boy loved Hibs, you could tell by the way he would speak about the club.

33 is no age whatsoever, I hope his friends and family are okay.

RIP Martin. We're all only just passing through but in tributes such as these it's clear he's left a lasting impression on those that came to know him either in person or through his commentary - touching he lives of other Hibbies through your passion - what a heart-warming legacy to leave as a Hibee.
